Natural swimming pools maintain themselves!
They utilize bacteria and microbes to keep the water pure, clean, and healthy for swimming in. They stay clean by having clearly defined swimming areas and constructed wetlands. Generally, half the pool is plant free for swimming and the other half is for regeneration and cleaning. The regeneration zones have small, energy efficient pipes that mechanically circulate the water to break down impurities in the same way nature does. Each of the regeneration zones has specific aquatic plants, which extract excess nutrients in the water to keep the pool clean. Water from the swimming zones pumps through natural, biological filters made up of microorganisms, plants, and small life forms to purify the water. Each natural pool design has overflow channels, which collect debris from the water.
Choosing a natural swimming pool has many advantages to your personal health and the health of the environment. Reflections will work with you to design and help in backyard natural pool design construction so that it can be personalized to your specific needs and tastes.
